“Haha…” Reba suddenlyughed. “I said so much, but you only focused on the fact that I hit


    him. Looks like your heart still aches for him.”


    “No, Grandma…” Rosalie smiled awkwardly. “I was just…a little surprised.”

    “Is that so? Just surprised?” Reba shrugged dismissively. “All’s good, in that case. I taught him a


    lesson on your behalf, and he’s probably still lying in bed in pain.”


    Rosalie gripped the hem of her shirt, suddenly feeling anxious. The image of Theodore injured and


    in pain shed past her mind


    instinctively, and made her panic.


    “Grandma, no matter what, you shouldn’t have hit him in a fit of anger. I’m not worried about him,


    I’m worried about you getting angry. Hitting someone takes quite some energy.”


    Contrary to her own words, Rosalie couldn’t help but be worried about Theodore. She didn’t expect


    Theodore to say all those words and take all the me.


    He would always me her, but in front of others, especially Grandma, he would always admit his


    wrongdoing.


    What exactly was he thinking?


    “All right, you silly girl. Just admit that you’re worried about him. It’s not like I can’t tell. Now that you


    two are divorced, what do you n to do next?”


    “…”


    Rosalie looked up. After a moment’s hesitation, she said, “Many


    things have happened during this period, and I feel very suffocated and miserable. I want to go


    abroad for a holiday for a few months, and get some fresh air.”


    She had to find a ce to give birth to her baby. She was worried that if Reba were to find out


    that she was with child, she might


    demand Theodore to remarry her.


    Under such circumstances, there were only two possibilities.


    Theodore would either be forced to remarry her for the sake of the, baby and end up hating her


    even more, or refuse to remarry her and make her abort the baby.


    Both possibilities were terrible, which was why she decided to only tell Grandma about the baby


    after she gave birth.


    By then, Theodore would probably be married to Cynthia. He wouldn’t need to remarry her.


    Rosalie would then tell Grandma that she was in love with another man. She would at most hire an


    escort to help her exin to Grandma that she had a partner. Everything would then be resolved.


    “All right,” Reba said with a nod. “You should go get a breather. It’s been tough on you over the


    years. Go visit a few countries and have fun. Don’t worry about spending the family’s money. Theo


    told me that he’s given you five percent of thepany’s shares, which is the least he could do.”


    “Yes, Grandma. See, I didn’t lose out. You don’t need to worry about me at all,” Rosalie said with a


    bright smile.


    Reba lifted a hand to caress Rosalie’s face. “You silly girl.”


    Rosalie had lunch with Reba before heading back in the afternoon.


    When she reached home, she felt rather uneasy thinking about how


    Grandma hit theodore.


    Grandma’s cane was made of solid wood. Anyone hit by it would certainly be in a lot of pain.


    Rosalie pulled out her phone, wanting to call Theodore to ask how he was. On second thought, she


    thought it was a bad idea to call him.


    In what capacity would she be asking him in?


    Oh yes, she could call Anthony.


    She wondered if Theodore had settled them down yet. It wouldn’t be a big deal for her to call


    Anthony to find out, and take the chance to casually ask about Theodore.


    Rosalie justified her actions to herself before calling Anthony’s number. The line rang for slightly


    over ten seconds before he answered it.


    “Hello, Madam Rosalie.”
